Even dogs should get presents :) My girl Rottweiler was my present to my husband nine years ago so we always spoil her at christmas, she rewarded us 5 years later with 12 puppies born the day before christmas eve. I had delayed my food shopping due to a few false alarms but the day I went, I got back to a panicky female about to have her first.
We finally unpacked the shopping at 5am in the morning after spending the night with her but it was the best christmas ever despite being worn out. dogs make a family complete :)
